Browned Honey Butter

When I made the corn muffins, I followed the link from Smitten Kitchen to this butter.  It is SO good!  I love honey and mixing it with butter is just a marvelous idea.

Browned Honey Butter

1 stick butter
2 T honey

Cut the stick of butter in half.  Place 4 T in a sauce pan and melt over medium heat.  Cook and stir until it is clear, then foamy, then brown bits start to form.  Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.  Let the other 4 T soften and then whisk it until smooth.  Whisk in honey, then cooled browned butter.  Spoon into a container.
